I've been using the quota mount options since it's the only way to
test the quota patches when using an older version of the quota
userspace package.
I can build a newer version of the userspace quota package for my own
use (since version 4.01 isn't in Debian Testing yet nor Ubuntu yet),
but we probably need to make sure we document that users may need to
build their own version of the quota package.
